A piece of unknown metal with mass 68.6 g is heated to an initial temperature of 100 °C and dropped into 42 g of water (with an

initial temperature of 20 °C) in a calorimeter. The final temperature of the system is 52.1°C. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g*⁰C. What is the specific heat of the metal?

The piece of unknown metal is in thermal equilibrium with water such that Q of metal is equal to Q of the water. We write this equality as follows:

-Qm = Qw

Mass of metal (Cm)(ΔT) = Mass of water (Cw) (ΔT)

where C is the specific heat capacities of the materials.

We calculate as follows:

-(Mass of metal (Cm)(ΔT)) = Mass of water (Cw) (ΔT)

-68.6 (Cm)(52.1 - 100) = 42 (4.184) (52.1 - 20)

Cm = 1.717 -----> OPTION C

Is francium found in nature or lab?
ddd [48]

Answer:

It was the last element first discovered in nature, rather than by synthesis. Outside the laboratory, francium is extremely rare, with trace amounts found in uranium and thorium ores, where the isotope francium-223 continually forms and decays

Based on patterns in the periodic table, which ion has a stable valence electron configuration?
kifflom [539]

The ions of Noble gases, <em>group VIII</em> elements have a full octet configuration on their outermost shell and as such are highly stable.

The periodic table is a systematic arrangement of elements in order of their atomic numbers into a set of 8 columns each called groups and a set of 7 rows each called a period.

Elements are arranged in different groups according to the number of Valence electrons they have.

  • For instance, elements in the group I of the periodic table are highly electropositive and as such are highly reactive.

The same is evident in group 7 elements are highly electronegative and have high electron affinity and as such are unstable and reactive.

  • However, Noble gases, <em>group VIII</em> elements have a full octet configuration on their outermost shell and as such are highly stable.

Consequently, the <em>Noble gases ion</em> has a stable Valence electron configuration.

How many moles of chlorine gas would occupy a volume of 35.5 L at a pressure of 100.0 kPa and a temperature of 100.0 degrees Cel
o-na [289]

1.137448506 mol moles of chlorine gas would occupy a volume of 35.5 L at a pressure of 100.0 kPa and a temperature of 100.0 degrees Celsius.

<h3>What is an ideal gas equation?</h3>

The ideal gas equation, pV = nRT, is an equation used to calculate either the pressure, volume, temperature or number of moles of a gas. The terms are: p = pressure, in pascals (Pa). V = volume, in m^3.

We apply the formula of the ideal gases, we clear n (number of moles); we use the ideal gas constant R = 0.082 l atm / K mol:

PV= nRT

Given data:

P=100.0 kPa =0.986923 atm

T=100 degree celcius= 100 + 273 =373 K

V=35.5 L

Substituting the values in the equation.

n= \frac{\;0,98 \;atm \;X \;35,5 \;L }{\;0,082\;atm / \;K mol \;X \;373 K}

n= 1.137448506 mol

Hence, 1.137448506 mol moles of chlorine gas would occupy a volume of 35.5 L at a pressure of 100.0 kPa and a temperature of 100.0 degrees Celsius.

amm1812

Answer:

There are 232 calories in the bar

Explanation:

Carbohydrates and protein are both 4 calories per gram, while fat is 9 calories per gram.

27*4=108\\4*4=16\\12*9=108\\108+108+16=232
